Facility Inspections

While this nursing home's overall grade was not a highlight, it actually excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Perhaps the most significant factor we consider in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. It is typically in your best interest to avoid places that had too many severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Despite this deficiency, this nursing home still received a relatively positive report.

Long-term Care Quality

This facility's second most favorable category is long-term care, but even there it received a grade of just D in that category. This turns out to be a relatively poor grade. Nursing homes that don't fare well in this category often don't provide as much nursing care and also may be lagging in a few of the areas of routine healthcare services we assessed. One of the datapoints we considered after nursing hours was vaccines. We were a bit alarmed this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to only 39.205956 percent of its residents. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

This nursing home ended up receiving a an abysmal grade in our short-term care category. It received an F in this area. Our short-term care ratings are presumably most critical for residents needing rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally requires more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not merely nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.

Nurse Quality

The next category we assessed was nursing. It received a lowly F for this category, which is a bottom of the barrel grade. Our nursing score consists of a handful of factors, however, the primary one is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing scores. This place performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
